EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 18th century ensemble features a Robe à l'Anglaise gown, petticoat, fichu, hat, and shoes, showcasing the elegance and intricacy of fashion during the Rococo era. The gown, dating from 1780-1790, is characterized by its fitted bodice and voluminous skirt, which was often worn over a petticoat to add fullness. The petticoat, from the 1780s, is adorned with delicate floral patterns and ruffles, adding a feminine touch to the outfit. The fichu, a triangular piece of fabric worn around the neck, completes the look and adds a touch of modesty. The hat, also from the late 18th century, is a fashionable accessory that complements the gown. Its tall, conical shape and intricate trimming are typical of the Rococo era. The shoes, circa 1770, are carriage boots with high heels and pointed toes, which were popular during this time period. The ensemble's color palette is dominated by pastels, reflecting the trend towards lighter, more delicate hues during the Rococo era. The European influence on fashion during this time is evident in the intricate textiles and designs, which were inspired by the art and culture of the continent. This beautiful ensemble is a testament to the rich history of fashion during the 18th century and the enduring appeal of the Rococo era. Its timeless elegance continues to inspire fashion designers and enthusiasts alike, making it an important piece of heritage art and a valuable addition to any collection.
